Revive Date Night with a Date Night Bucket List

You guys, I'm going to be fully honest. We have totally been in a date night rut recently. We've been making it happen, but we don't plan ahead and we often end up doing the same thing over and over... so we needed to make a change.

So for Date Night last week, we sat down and made a Date Night bucket list. It was a little hard at first... I told you, we're in a rut. We had a hard time coming up with some good ideas at first. But once we got some ideas flowing, we were able to come up with a pretty great list. I'm really excited about it too! We typed it up nicely and we're going to print it out and leave it posted on the fridge so that we can refer back to it easily and make sure that we are making the activities happen. This way, even if we haven't planned ahead well, we have some great ideas to choose from!

Here's a sampling of our Bucket List:

Make Homemade Ice Cream

See a Musical

Visit Fountain Hills

Go to a You-Pick Orange Grove

Take a Gondola Ride

Take a Couples Cooking Class

Visit a Museum

Do an Escape the Room

Have a Picnic and Make Kites

Host a Murder Mystery Party

Rent a Tandem Bike

Go On A Hike

Ride a Trolley in Old Town Scottsdale

I think making a bucket list was the best thing that we could have done for getting out of our rut. It made us think of different things that we could do rather than takeout and a DVD. Not that there's anything wrong with that every now and again, but let me tell you, it was getting pretty old...

And don't forget to sign up for our Date Box Swap. Sign Ups close on Wednesday. And make sure to check out what Justine and Amberly have to say about reviving date night and remember to use #ReviveDateNight so we can follow along with your date ideas on Instagram!
